LAUNCH DATE: Friday 8th March everywhere except Saturday 9th March for Kill The Cat in London. So… a few weeks ago our Welsh juice-bomb brewer friends Loka Polly got in touch to ask if we could help them get their Augment Range launch around to some awesome bars in our patch of the UK. What[…]

In my 2018 wrap-up “State of the Jolly Good Nation” post I briefly touched upon the subject of coldchain and stated “I hope that 2019 sees us setting up our first 100% coldchain connections for UK beer.” Well, here we are on the 1st of March 2019 and I’m sat in the passenger[…]

Well, we’ve called time on the “festive season”, kicked out the stragglers, locked the door and breathed a sigh of relief. Yeah, I’m not really into it. Can you tell? It is the time of year for reflection and resolutions, so I’ll go with the flow on that… It has been a big year, a[…]

Kat and myself (Yvan) made this diagramme back in 2015 to explain KeyKeg to folk. It’s first use was when we ran a KeyKeg bar at Stevenage Beer Festival. It seems to have been quite popular having been ripped off many times now by CAMRA and even a couple of commercial organisations. It’s a little[…]

We’re getting involved in my (Yvan’s) village’s new beer festival. This shall mainly be a fun beer event for Willingham locals – with a great range of drinks available, live music, and a summer BBQ. But we’ll have some special stuff on the draught system too… Presently looking at, hoping to justify, about 20 different[…]
